Justin Bieber is reportedly set to top next week’s Billboard 200 and Hot 100 with his new album, ‘Justice,’ and its latest single, ‘Peaches,’ respectively.

Expanding the original 16-song effort to a whopping 22 tracks, the already star-studded LP (which featured the likes of Chance the Rapper, Giveon, Daniel Caesar, Khalid Burna Boy, Benny Blanco, and more) calls on more of Bieber’s celebrity friends to assist his bid for chart domination.

As the age-old adage goes, patience is a virtue. And, for Normani fans, it looks like that saying may hold true.

This summer will be two years since the singer blazed the scene with her solo breakout smash ‘Motivation.’

Arriving after the Billboard success of Khalid and Sam Smith collabs, the track and its highly viral video catapulted the former Fifth Harmony singer into definitive “next up” territory.

In the time since the music industry ground to a relative standstill due to the global health crisis, but it didn’t stop the star’s work on her debut solo album.

Indeed, she’s been in the lab with the likes of The-Dream, Scott Storch, and Rodney Jerkins.

With anticipation sky-high for the grand unveiling of her new material (which she has been teasing), the 24-year-old has provided an update of sorts.
